Didn't we literally just get done with massive marches for Palestine in every capital city? I don't think that many people changed their mind...

Polling the API every second, are you crazy?!

Whenever I try and get a proper explanation of a monad from the internet I get these miserable opaque examples which make me go "sorry I asked!" But I think a monad is basically just single type that when unwrapped gives you the result of a calculation and some metadata about the calculation.

I think it's more like Rust's Result or Option types then go's tuples but I'd say they both basically count.

Nah, I recently had to create a program that turned a bunch of extracted CSV files into an XML file for government reporting. I also had to parse some provided government XML files to add things into my output.

This was going to be run by non-technical people on any OS so I went for python because "install python, download this file and click on it" was easy. Python has a big standard library so I could do everything I needed in it. I was considering using Go but asking people to open the terminal and build something was probably a bridge too far.

I/O and stuff like that is being done in the WASI proposals not in WASM proper. I believe most of this stuff is waiting for initial implementations at this point and then it becomes a proper standard.

What honest criticisms did you find in this article? All I saw was;

• compiling is slow
• borrow checker is complicated

This isn't new?

This doesn't look like a Claude issue or an AI issue, this looks like someone pushed malicious code to a repo and they where trying to make AI tools ignore these files? I'm not reading this wrong am I?

What am I supposed to be looking at? They post a lot? They post American, Aus, NZ stuff? What are you on about?

Isn't the EV tax effectively just a fuel excise tax for cars that don't use fuel? I mean, regardless of what this article thinks the fuel excise is described as "a sales tax on fuel that is reinvested into roads".

I wouldn't say it's a flop but it is kinda light on content. I finished they game on week 1 played a bit more on week 2 where nothing changed I then uninstalled it. I'm back right now because they've released new content though.

Most games do have huge concurrent player falloffs pretty quickly helldivers 2 currently has a 24hr peak of 63k and I wouldn't call it a flop. Path of Exile 2 currently has a 24hr peak of 17k players, I wouldnt call it a flop. Somehow Dragon age veilguard was at the top of the steam charts in week 1 and we all know it was a flop. I'm not sure steam charts are a particularly useful metric. Fromsoft seems very happy with the amount of players in NightReign and that's probably the most useful metric we have.

Another tui library I've seen lately is iocraft. Although it's got the classic react/swiftui style.

A new JS framework! Time to reset the clock!

In all seriousness though, congrats, you're already a lot further than most people ever get. I approve of this trend to reduce bundle size as much as possible that we've been moving towards.
